About

Burnham and the Dengie Hundred is an area born from the sea. Over thousands of years it has produced, many skilled craftsmen and women in the agricultural, fishing and maritime trades. The museum celebrates the working and domestic lives of these people and their families.

Learn about the first people to inhabit the area, about its medieval history, the importance of oysters to the town’s development and the transformation of much of the town into H.M.S. St. Mathew during the Second World War.

In addition to the many artefacts on display the museum is guardian of detailed local family history archives.
